Business value

Complex organizations are supported by employees in a variety of roles. While these roles may be essential for the success of the business, not all of them are opportunity owning or need to forecast future sales revenue. Administrators can filter relevant user records from the forecast hierarchy. This will allow sellers and managers to view only the user records that are of interest for the sales forecasting process, thus decluttering the forecast grid.

Feature details

Declutter the forecast grid by filtering only those records that are of interest for the sales forecasting process.

The following capabilities are available in this feature:

  • Administrators will have a new step in the forecast configuration to define hierarchy filters. This step allows the administrators to add rules to specify which hierarchy records should be included within the forecast.
  • Users will see the filtered hierarchy in their forecast grid, trend chart, and deal flow charts.
